AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

SAFF Women’s Championship: India set up a semifinal against Bhutan in Goa after topping Group B, firing in 14 goals in two matches and getting a boost from forward Manisha Kalyan’s return; the match is set for Wednesday at the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Margao. Regional sport spotlight: In the other semifinal, Bangladesh face Nepal after finishing second in Group B, with both teams chasing a final spot. Bhutan debt watch: Bhutan’s public debt has reached 90.6% of GDP, with MPs warning that external borrowing—especially non-hydropower loans tied to convertible currencies—could raise repayment pressure. Cost-of-living policy: The National Assembly endorsed expanded GST exemptions on essential goods, adding more staple foods, edible oils, hygiene items and disability assistive devices to ease household burdens. Youth and jobs: A new report highlights a shift in Bhutanese youth aspirations beyond government posts, even as youth unemployment remains high. Energy planning: Bhutan targets 25,000 MW by 2040, combining hydropower and large-scale solar, as major projects like Nyera Amari move ahead. Finance sector: Royal Insurance Corporation of Bhutan reported a sharp profit drop in 2025 despite growth in assets and lending. Education: Bhutan’s first international K–XII school enrollment opens in August for ages 3–11, aiming to blend international learning with national values.
